Built 101 years ago as a wool-processing centre, Ovolo is now the hottest hotel in town...

Ovolo Woolloomooloo, Sydney

Stunning interiors...

Situated on Finger Wharf in Sydney’s central, water-facing, Woolloomooloo, Ovolo Woolloomooloo has garnered such a strong reputation that you’ll probably find yourself in a room next door to a Sydney local taking a staycation. Unlike some luxury hotels, that love to charge for every tiny little extra, the spirit of service here is one of total generosity- you’ll find a completely free minibar in your room, complimentary breakfast and a free daily Happy Hour (from 5-6pm). Oh and did we mention that Russell Crowe lives in one of the neighbouring wharf apartments? A short stroll away from some of the best restaurants in Sydney, be sure to combine your stay with a bite to eat at China Doll and a drink in the gorgeous The Tilbury bar.
